Talents

Tonight I went to see the booths on University Avenue that are in conjunction with the Freedom Festival. The Festival is going on all weekend and there are lots of groups that have set up booths across from the Provo Tabernacle. There are rides for the kids and lots of food. Businesses and local entertainment. But what I liked best were seeing all of the crafts and such that were displayed. It was fun to see cool jewelry, paintings, and photographs. I am amazed at the talents of those around me. I can't even begin to pretend that I could ever make any of that stuff! But it is simply awe-inspiring to me that beautiful things are made by everyday people. And even though I don't have the talent of an artist or a photographer, I think that one of my talents is to appreciate their hard work and the beauty that they portray.
